Weird Weather Photos and Thank You

Just after I posted my blog update this morning, I stepped to the back door to try to snap a few photos of how strange it looked outside - the fog was blowing around like sheets of rain and it looked like a giant spooky fog machine was at work. Here are the pictures, taken one right after the other...see how the fog closes in?






(The two bottom pictures are the exact same view and snapped just seconds apart!)
As I write this tonight, the temperature is 56 degrees and the fog is gone but it is raining again. I used several bales of straw throughout the barn tonight...it's really wet. I also took delivery of 100 bales of hay this afternoon - lol - luckily, my nephew could back right up to the barn since the snow and ice had melted away!

I also wanted to say thank you to those of you who have left some very kind and encouraging comments on this blog the past few days. It's always nice to know that folks are reading and take the time the time to comment. I appreciate every one of those messages!

cary, I have been enjoying your blog since last summer. I treasure your words. They are like a breathe of fresh air. Yes, our winter has been rather Michiganian - subject to change,
but my sheep likewise keep my priorities active. Your mittens have been so inspirational. I started knitting ez mittens because of you and love them! Your fiddlehead mittens are jewels! Thank you. continue to write, and your christmas comments about walking with our Lord were so welcomed. I believe walking with him now is more important for our mending of both personal and worldly fences than ever.

We get a lot of fog around here and it looks so mysterious. I like it. Your pictures are cool.

Hi Cary,

I read your blog! I get to see the snow that I don't get anymore. :)

Have a great day!

Ah, Cary, you are so positive about our December weather. I think it's curious and sometimes beautiful, but frankly, I'm sick of it!!!! So much work to just get in to the barn....

I love when snow creates fog. That is something we rarely see here in Maryland. Mother Nature likes to keep us guessing.

What great shots!! You make me wish I was on my FIL's farm rather than the city right now....
